Keep in mind that a port will never be possible because they are two completely different operating systems.
The one in the second post is HTC IME, which is a GREAT keyboard. I find it a bit ugly. I did mine (last modification was a few days ago). Here I post an screenshot. Is Gingerbread keyboard (concretely Keyboard from 2.3 by Steve Lin in the Market) modified.

wp7 keyboard have all I desire in keyboard:
Emoticon's key
Great prediction
Great precision
I never find all three in the keyboards of android
htc have the emoticon's key and precision,and swype have a great prediction but it isn't free multiling have a good prediction,but not at the level of swype.
Last question: i read very good opinion about the samsung's keyboard,there some apk for test it?

You should try out Thumb keyboard, is also has a WP7 skin and all of your desires (at least that's my opinion) and a LOT of options
You can find it here on XDA
There is also a beta for the next release, with text predicion after you type 1 letter, works really well, but is still a beta (and thus free to try for a limited time!)

Just installed this and it works great!

I just tried the HTC IME it was no good to me it felt weird because it didn't have multi-touch. Does anybody have one that supports multitouch

Neorose UI for prophet.

Has anyone thought of porting this theme to one of the prophet roms ?
It is a very cool looking theme and the shortcuts and menu's are really nice and user friendly, i played with my gf's vox and i was amazed at how comfortable the menu's were. Altho it was designed for non touchscreen phones i dont see why it should not work with the prophet.
Anyway there are some pics below
and here is a Vox rom that it can be ported from : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=488527

yes it is for smartphone.
but i do not see a reason it should not work on a touchscreen, trust me, i played with it for hours and it is such a cool theme that i am tempted to buy a s710 vox. Even if it does not have full touch support, the prophet has no keyboard and no arrow keys, this theme is designed to be used with the d-pad, you can totaly control your homescreen with one hand with this theme.
it also has the functions of adding applications into the menu with custom icons of your choice, it can even link opera mini without having to open java first....
If i were a rom cooker i would be making a rom with this theme right now, but i do not have the time or skill, which is why i thought one of the current cookers could try.
you have to admit, it would be something different to all the current htc home and manila2d roms... and it does look very sexy .....
here is a youtube clip of the neorose theme :

[APP] Newest TouchPal Keyboard

Here is the newest TouchPal keyboard from China!

Far has I know it is still in beta over there in China.... but I can not read chinese....
Here are some pictures!
I really like this keyboard it has always been one of my favorites ever sense the first beta last year. now they have made lots of changes and it is even better.
When you install it it will be in chinese. you will need to go to settings and switch it to english.
Looks nice. Downloading now.
EDIT: Just tried it out for a while. Verdict: It's great!
Once you turn off the Chinese language, the text prediction is great, and the buttons are quick and responsive. I like the option to have different layouts for portrait vs. landscape (even though I just use QWERTY for both). The edit button is top center, and very handy, since I came from a G1 and the Vibrant has no trackball/d-pad to edit words. One note though, the delete button in Edit deletes the next character, not the previous. Not a huge deal, since the backspace on the keyboard still deletes the previous character and you could just select what you need to delete in the Edit screen, just a weird change. If you don't know what I mean, try it out yourself, it's worth a try at least
I love that style of keyboard with the two letters per key (Like on my original Blackberry Pearl).
@Phromik
Yeah it is a great little keyboard. my favorite feature is being able to swipe to change from T9 to QWERTY

I am new to the Android side of XDA just picked up my Vibrant 2 days ago and loving it.............
My favorite too......one of the first things I downloaded to my Vibrant and seems to work pretty well just missing the ability to save passwords or url or email adresses (one click entry in the username or password box for websites is really slick and I miss that the most). It is still beta so we will see if they implement it later on.
Link not working... looks fun though
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Go to Market and search for Touchpal... is in Chinese but you can change setting easily
Um, why does the app need access to Contacts and Voice Recorder?
I ask, because we (in the I.T. dept) are being bombarded by Chinese malware and such.
The permissions do seem a bit excessive for a keyboard.
Requires these permissions:
Your personal information
read contact data
Network communication
full Internet access, view network state, view Wi-Fi state

Awesome Keyboard FlexT9IME_TMO

Here is a keyboard I posted in the EVO 4G forums awhile back. Similar to swype but tons better IMO. I just added the theme to it. The theme came from "Awesome Keyboard" theme from "Dansta34"
Been using it on my Rezound since day one.
Just transfer to your sd card and install like any other apk.

Screenshot is tiny.
This looks to be a themed version of Nuance's Flext9:
https://market.android.com/details?...wsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5udWFuY2UuZmxleHQ5LmlucHV0Il0.
While I agree that it's a great keyboard (It's my daily driver), this is a paid app and probably shouldn't be distributed here. I see a reference to tmo in the file name, maybe this was included on some t-mobile phones?
This also happened to be the Amazon Free app of the day some time ago, so if you keep up with that, you may already have it (that's how I got it).
I tried to theme this keyboard about 3 versions ago but it would lose some of the functionality, the voice and swipe would not work. It just updated yesterday also.

Yes it was ported from a T-Mobile phone originally.

Is speech to text working on the Rezound? Reading the reviews for this on the market and a lot of people said the flex update broke speech to text.

A.I.Type Keyboard (Best Android Keyboard)

Hi Guys,
Want to suggest this keyboard, I have tried almost all the keyboards available and found this to be almost perfect, just a bit of setting and its almost equivalent to iPhone keyboard (the only best thing in iPhone )
A.I.Type Keyboard Market Link
To make it perfect, do the following:
1. Select iPhone theme.
2. Reduce the portrait mode height.

I really like the letters
Noam.
Does it support Swype function?
why is the memory consumption so high for a keyboard? wouldn't this kill battery life?

P.S. ჩვენ დავამატებთ ქართულ კლავიატურას მომდევნო ვერსიაში . This is correct form
Swiftkey is much better. Both predictions and options (and looks for my part). Still nice keyboard though, but not the best.
its for those who prefer iPhone's keyborad
I am one of them..

Ok, good news. I had some time yesterday, so I added a Georgian layout. It will be released both for Tablets and phones in the next release.
Unfortunately, my personal Android device (HTC) doesn't come with Georgian fonts so I got squares instead of characters, but I believe it should work well on your Georgian device.
Follow our version updates. You'll get it soon (along with Thai, by the way. I added it too).
Thanks
Noam.
P.S. - the wrong Georgian sentence was produced by Google Translate, of course
anybody finding this keyborad freezing or lagging when writing at high speed ?
